We help you close that gap, one baat at a time.

02You tried once. They laughed. You stopped.
03Your nani calls. You pass the phone.
04Your kids will ask. You'll answer in English.
A real conversation. No judgement.

Why people are waiting
"a space to practice where I feel comfortable"

Questions.
What happens when I open the app? +
Pick a scenario. Tap the mic. An AI answers in Urdu, in character. You reply out loud. Five minutes later, a short note.
Is this Duolingo for Urdu? +
No. Duolingo teaches vocab. Baat is conversation practice. You speak. The AI speaks back.
How is this different from asking my mom? +
Your mom laughs when you mispronounce paani. Baat doesn't.
What if my Urdu is really bad? +
Then you're who it's built for. No level test, no leaderboard, no shame.
How much will it cost? +
Nothing during beta. We'll be transparent about pricing before we ever charge anything.
